Regulation 20(1)
SCHEDULE 3Content of statutory declaration
[I, A.B. etc.] being a person appointed for the purpose of taking the 2021 Census (“the census”), I will fully and honestly perform the duties assigned to me under the Census Act 1920 and the Census (England) Regulations 2020 (“census duties”).
I will carry out my census duties in conformity with the provisions of section 39 of the Statistics and Registration Service Act 2007, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the Data Protection Act 2018 and all other relevant legal obligations. I understand that failure to comply with such obligations may result in a criminal conviction and a fine or imprisonment.
I will not, except in the performance of my census duties, disclose or make known, at any time, any matter which comes to my knowledge relating to any person, family or household.
I will use any access materials I am given, including any security pass, electronic media, personal identification material or passwords, only to perform my census duties. I will not lend, transfer or otherwise disclose such materials to any other person, unless specifically directed to do so by the Statistics Board.
I will report any concerns I have about the confidentiality of personal information in connection with my census duties, or with regard to any other matters relating to the census whether arising from my actions or those of others, directly to the Statistics Board.
